If you take it you're not eligible to unemployment. I think in this market, given the undefined length of employment searching at the moment, that's a major consideration.

I’m sure they’re working on that, but that takes time. It definitely doesn’t happen in the relative “overnight” that this new influx of code spam spun up.

How will you know when to unplug the power? How will we know it hasn't replicated? A true unaligned AGI is a APT. If you have an APT in your machine, you have to rip out everything. Are we going to do that with all of our computer infra?

This is all still "what if's", but the tail end's are truly F'd beyond our ability to fix.

Your intuition is busted if you can’t tell the difference between a joke about frivolous naming, and managing a global pandemic.

It’s the lack of community. In prior eras, we had more community to help us deal with ourselves. Now, without community, we just ruminate. Or fall into toxic, one subject, online community.

iPhones have unique identifiers. So do you, via your set of emails used. The email maps to the iCloud account, which then maps to the iPhone. It would be trivial to map a backup to an iPhone.

But if the data is backed up on iCloud, Apple will provide it with a warrant.

You’re yelling at clouds.

Yes. None of the supposed action of creatine was backed by any statistically significant study. Just drink water. Or don't. It's up to you.

Knowledge of the potential is peripheral expectation.

If you can say "Oh yea that makes sense" with the same set of knowledge you had both before and after some event happens, all else being equal, you have an expectation. That is enough for placebo.

You have to have literally 0 knowledge about an event to rule out placebo.

Placebo.

If you actually drank enough water daily, sans creatine, I'm sure you'd feel better.

Most people taking creatine just need to drink water. They drink more water using creatine. In reality, the water/hydration is doing the heaviest lift, not the creatine.
